    We showed up to celebrate my wife’s birthday and the place was empty at front desk for a bit. When someone showed up, the young woman asked where our reservation was made. I told her it was via OpenTable and was for dining. She seemed flustered and asked three more times after which I handed her my phone and the app to see if that made it easier for her. She expressed some frustration at something, not sure what, but finally proceeded to guide us to a table. The restaurant was only busy near the bar so I’m not sure why the host/hostess area was vacant for so long but it was mid-week so it’s plausible to have reduced staff at the time. We were served and waited on by a wonderful bartender who was tasked with cover the entire restaurant and the bar. That bothered us a little bit that she had to cover so much ground, when there were two people at the hostess station, in a non-rush period, that could’ve easily helped her out, as the bar was full when we came in. Nonetheless, our bartender/waitress was PHENOMENAL!!! Great service, vibes, and always professional. If we were to come back, we’d be glad to just be served/waited on by her. On to the food: - Lobster Flatbread - 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 that thing was amazing. I don’t usually do flatbreads, but was encouraged by my wife to switch it up. Every bite was amazing, right along with the garden salad on the side. - Bourbon Refresh - I’ve never had quite a drink with made with bourbon before. Truly refreshing and almost teleported me to spring time on the patio enjoying the breeze without a care in the world. - ultimate grilled cheese - my wife surprised at how much she enjoyed it. The person who brought it from the kitchen mistakenly called it a BLT, which threw both of us off. Nonetheless, she enjoyed every bite. - shareable sliders - too notch, tender, flavorful, would definitely recommend. We may patron the establishment again during a different time slot and day of the week, especially to see the gaming options.

    This was my second time at Momo. The menu is Korean fried chicken and assorted North Asian dishes such as bimibap, a shellfish ramen, yakisoba and a few others. The food is quite good and moderately priced. The manager served us which suggests that it, like many restaurants, is a bit short on help, but the food did arrive promptly. It is within easy walking distance of Arena Stage and is quite moderately priced. We will go back
